Unless you haven’t been paying attention lately, you’ve probably spotted a celebrity wearing—or a makeup tutorial featuring—makeup artist Nina Park’s signature glam. Known for her bespoke, natural-leaning makeup looks that still feel fresh yet classic, Park counts Margaret Qualley, Sadie Sink, Kaia Gerber, Greta Lee, Zoë Kravitz, Emma Stone and Hailey Bieber among her clients. If dewy skin, subtle blush, soft smoky eyes and billowy, blurred lips are on your mood board for the new year, Park is the artist to watch.
I scroll Park's Instagram daily for makeup inspo, and last night's Critics' Choice Awards just cemented the lip look I will be copying all year long, worn by Hamnet star—and Best Actress winner—Jessie Buckley: caramel lips. Using just two CHANEL lip products, Park perfected (in my humble opinion) the best of the brown lip comeback for 2026. First, Park generously lines Buckley's lips just above the natural lip line using CHANEL's LE CRAYON LÈVRES Longwear Lip Pencil in Pivoine ($35), to create her signature pillowy fullness. Then, a few swipes of LE ROUGE DUO ULTRA TENUE Ultrawear Liquid Lip Colour in Caramel Beige ($50) warm up the overall look for a sophisticated, elegant neutral "nude" lip.
Buckley’s caramel lips complemented the rest of her Critics' Choice Awards beauty look, which also featured a bronze-hued, side-slicked pixie and neutral makeup, courtesy of CHANEL's LES BEIGES Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream in Soleil Tan Bronze ($60), JOUES CONTRASTE INTENSE Cream-to-Powder Blush in Beige Éclatant ($55), LES 4 OMBRES Multi-Effect Quadra Eyeshadow in Clair Obscur ($72) and OMBRE ESSENTIELLE Multi-Use Longwearing Eyeshadow in Beige Sable ($40).
